Sky Watch: Sea of Clouds, II
Today's Sky Watch is another interpretation of the scene in my previous post. A good example, I think, of how extremely different the same thing can look from different points of view (not just in photography, I might add:) This one was shot from exactly the same spot and at the same time, but this time directly into the sun and with a short telephoto lens to bring the clouds and ridge closer together. Shooting at the sun (with my hand extended as a shade) caught these beautiful, fiery highlights on the fast moving wisps of cloud rushing across the scene just below the ridge.

It is dramatically different from the previous post.
At 300 feet above the Sacramento Valley I am too low to be above the clouds, often I find myself right in the middle this time of year.
WoW! Very dramatic :)
(I try again) The turbulent cloud-fire-sea contrasts so well with the quiet forest and what I particularly like about that is that you also catched light on the tree edges. Sublime ! Hildegarde , http://flanders-inside.skynetblogs.be (Each week I visit 3 skies that draw my attentionà
